Nissan’s aging Titan full-size truck won’t be updated until at least the 2014 model year due to engineering delays. Automotive News reports that the truck’s launch will be pushed back because of problems caused by the March 11 earthquake and tsunami in Japan.

As a result, Nissan had to shoulder the entirety of development in-house in late 2009; the next Titan was thus said to be on track for a 2013 model year launch. However, fallout from the natural disaster in Japan means the truck has been delayed even longer. Nissan redeployed resources and engineers in order to restart production lines halted by the disaster. That meant Nissan didn’t have the resources to develop the new Titan as quickly as originally anticipated.

The current Titan was introduced for 2004. The 2012 model has a 317-hp, 5.6-liter V-8 engine and five-speed automatic transmission. With just 23,416 examples sold in 2010, the Titan lags far behind sales of full-size competitors like the Ford F-150, Chevrolet Silverado, Ram 1500, and Toyota Tundra.
